Kein Ausbildungsberuf.

This is literally an unskilled job. Except you need a certificate. Which requires skill sorry: training and practice.

Ah thanks, that gives some context because I didn’t really understand. Also, I was just tasting the word Gabelstaplerfahrer because it sounds funny when you say it fast.

German is easy like that.

Gabel = fork
Stapler = stacker
Farher= driver

The etymology of these words is pretty far out, but it's technically the same as forklift driver. I don't know. To me it's the same picture.

Might be because lifting a full ton up a milimeter by hand isn't easy?

I don’t get it. Unless it’s talking about how hard it is to eat fries with a fork?

It's a wood chip, not a fry chip. Even the smallest of bumps is enough to cause a pallet jack to grind to a stop. Instead of rolling over the "obstacle", the things are heavy enough and the wheels are small enough that they just can't, so they stop. Then you have to back it up and kick whatever dust speck it hit out of the way before continuing.
